RAILWAY LIBERALISES FACILITY FOR COLLECTION OF I-TICKETS BOOKED ON DEFENCE TRAVEL SYSTEM BY DEFENCE PERSONNEL
I-TICKETS on DEFENCE TRAVEL SYSTEM CAN BE COLLECED AT ANY PRS COUNTER BY DEFENCE PERSONNEL
NEW RECEIPT FORMAT OF I-TICKETS BY DEFENCE PERSONNEL TO INDICATE BOTH PNR NUMBER AND TRANSACTION ID on DEFENCE TRAVEL SYSTEM
For hassle-free collection of i- tickets by Defence Personnel booked on the Defence Travel System on Indian Railways, the Indian Railways now affords the facility of collection of the booked i-tickets from any Computerized Passenger Reservation System (PRS) counter of Indian Railways. The i-tickets could earlier be collected by the Defence Personnel at the journey originating station only. However, the i-tickets can be printed only once.
With a view to phase out the Defence Warrant System, the Indian Railways commenced the Defence Travel System on its e- ticketing portal of IRCTC in 2009. The i-ticket can be collected by the defence personnel on showing one of the ten prescribed proofs of identity allowed for undertaking journeys on e-tickets. If some other person collects the tickets on behalf of the defence personnel, then he/she must produce any of the ten prescribed proofs of identity in original along with photocopy of the ticket-holding defence personnel.
The Railways has also issued format of receipt to be given by the Defence Personnel while collecting the i-ticket from the Railway counter which specifies inter alia details such as PNR Number and Transaction ID on Defence Travel System. The Railway has also mitigated certain other problems encountered in booking of i-tickets for the Defence Personnel through facilities like auto cancellation of fully waitlisted e-tickets, allowing of booking of tickets on defence travel system during first thirty minutes of opening of reservation disallowed for all other ticketing agents.
